and the actors considered for the roles

original villains for the movie

...

Is that a JoJo reference?

I'm straight but damn that dude is handsome

more Kira

Jesus Christ this would have been kino, what would the story be about? Also is there more concept art?

Jakku before it became NOT-Tatooine. also Kira and flying BB-8

all this concept art is from the art of the film book. the book is depressing because it tracks the project from initial stages to final product and all these interesting ideas are replaced by the stuff we ended up with.

both the TFA and TLJ concept art books have some story ideas - including Luke being in Force Awakens a lot more and going on the adventure with Kira/Rey. Luke's story was dropped/changed because apparently every time Luke showed up he took away attention from the new characters

that original story was crafted by Disney or is it Lucas' original sequel trilogy storyline?

a bit of both. Michael Arndt wrote a draft based on Lucas' original ideas. That script was then heavily rewritten by JJ Abrams and Kasdan. Some ideas were pushed to TLJ as well.

This concept art was approved by Lucas himself

>This was a very early take on Luke’s temple, way back when there was still no director. This artwork was shown to George Lucas in a presentation. Doug [Chiang] came back and said, “Congratulations, James. You got a George “Fabulouso” stamp.” VFX art director James Clyne recalls.

fuck that's cool

>scavenger of imperial wreckage is wearing scavenged imperial equipment
...really?

>NOT-Tatooine

Never discuss Star Wars ever again, you disgust me.

Jakku is literally Tatooine with a different name.

Woah... it's almost like scavengers make use of anything they find.

>Junk planet
Why the fuck didn't they go with that instead of another desert planet?

Because then it wouldn't be a proper remake of A New Hope.

So why exactly didn't they go with all this cool shit they could have made using the posibilities of today's CGI? Instead they chose to make everything shitty, bland and uninteresting and somehow have every major character become a fucking clown.
Really, this could have been as beautiful as avatar if they wanted.

See >Michael Arndt wrote a draft based on Lucas' original ideas. That script was then heavily rewritten by JJ Abrams and Kasdan
It's partly JewJew's fault, and probably some executives who wanted it to be closer to ANW in order to play it safe.

And even what we've got wasn't bad in comparison to what fucking Rian Johnson did to the franchise afterwards.

...

Would have been a thousand times better than what we got.

But JJ signed on and made those big public statements about "Star Wars is too white" and insisted that they recast Finn and being black.

The people to feel bad for here are the concept artists and designers. They spent years working on all of this amazing artwork, only for about 5% to be applied for the film, and it's not even the best and most imaginative art that gets selected.

...

...

It's literally Tatooine with a different name, eat a bullet faggot

The original actor would be better, of course, but I don't even mind that much the fact that he's black, but more the fact he's John "SHEEEEIT" Ooga Booga. Couldn't they get a good looking and charismatic actor instead?

>new ideas? Can't have that goy!
t. Disney

Cool design, actually feels creative and not that much derivative.

>red and blue lightsaber
I like it. Would show Kylo's conflict.

WHAT THE FUCK WHY DIDN'T WE GET ALL THIS

Because we live in the worst timeline for Star Wars.

I'm genuinely mad. Fuck Hollywood.

Because they made the wrong choices for TFA and now they're stuck with them for the whole trilogy

...

Why the fuck couldn't we get this instead. So much wasted potential.

How about at least one planet that requires a space suit?

One day we'll get an Old Republic movie where this concept will be reused

Wtf I actually like that walker

Hexagon hull, short wide legs that are awkward in in way. Cockpit under the head guns. Actually different enough from the AT-AT to be worth the remix. The ones in TLJ looked retarded and try hard.

looks like she was always meant to be an armpit slut

was Starkiller base in the original draft?

>original star wars had no diversity minus Lando

How wrong they were.

How ironic it is they want to kill off everything we loved about the original in such unceremonious ways and shove a message about letting go of the past yet despite having all these new ideas in pre-production they used absolutely none of them.
What a bunch of fucking clowns.

Poe was black?

...

>Darth Talon got scrapped
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Why was rey so fat during TLJ? I swear to god in some scenes she looked like she just came out of mcdonalds. Didn't they make her do any kind of training like they apparently did with luke? Her legs looked swollen as fuck during close up shots.

it doesn't matter if its good just as long at it makes money

Only Kira I know is Kira Carsen. Who's this other Kira?

>worst timeline for Star Wars
>best timeline for President
The monkey's paw....

>red star destroyer with a death star in it
>new idea
come on now

Rian Johnson wanted to sell that message. He had more or less full creative control over that movie. Disney just enjoyed his final product.

It's a new take on old tech. Far better than just reusing the same shit with very minor tweaks.

the best timeline for a president would be one without any of the most famous one's from the latest elections

Arndt never did a script.

He only handed in an outline before Jew Jew showed him the door.

The first draft of TFA was written by Kasdan/JewJew.

fairly certain that post is 100% bullshit. darth talon was an eu villain in the future where she fucked lukes great grandson or something like that. i very very very much doubt they were gonna bring her and whoever that red nigger is into the new movies, especially since her backstory is heavily dependent on there being a bunch of sith lords around

NO SHIT, SHERLOCK

so we could have had a good movie? damn

>was Starkiller base in the original draft?

No idea from Abrams iirc.

>It's a new take on old tech
no it's actually
>just reusing the same shit with very minor tweaks

>star destroyer with a death star in it
oh. i thought that was supposed to be a shield generator and that that was a super shielded star destroyer

I think this is part of a scrapped idea where Kira pops open the xwing hull doors and used her saber to split the underside of the destroyer.

Also there was a very cool looking sequence with an underwater emperors throne room on Endor. Apparently they were thinking the falcon was star worthy so it also is seaworthy

So many bonkers ideas. I just want to know what the fuck George’s original outline was. Allegedly he also had Luke on exile on the island, eschewing responsibility in the force, but then he was gonna tag along obi wan style and get his groove back

>it's another autistists reeee over their fanfiction not being canon episode

It's not bullshit. She is featured in the book.

Kill yourself faggog

>autist goes into threads he doesnt like or enjoy

lets hope a medication is invented soon for you

No, JJ explicitly wanted the most pear-shaped, sweaty nigger they could find. These people truly are sick when it comes to what they term "deconstruction."

>Start a trilogy with no story arc outside the first film
>Hire a second director with an intention that contradicts the first filmmaker's
>Enjoy the film based on the 10 minute screener you were given
>Be astonished that people don't like it.

they have the same face

>Different color
>Spherical center with gaping hole
>Entirely separate and distinct yet similar design
Compared to TFA's near 1:1 OT Star Destroyer it's a far more accurate depiction of an updated versions of old tech.

>

>Because they made the wrong choices for TFA and now they're stuck with them for the whole trilogy

They just needed to add more unique visuals, steal all the good ones from Lucas. Then make a cool plot for TLJ.

TFA isn't a deconstruction, TLJ is. TFA is a reconstruction.

It's amazing isn't it? And they fire the third director who actually seems to have had a semblance of a vision for his movie beyond "Give fans what they want" Because like it or not TLJ was giving people who didn't like TFA exactly what they wanted.

so does the book tell you what other endgame ideas they had for the movie? Jedi Killer and Darth Talon look cool imo

yeah it's about as new and different as the not-death stars in the prequel trilogy

Are there any new alien characters concepts? The new trilogy has nothing really stand out in terms of non humans

even looting cloud city

wow. that is INCREDIBLY stupid and im very happy we didnt get that and so should you. i cant quite put it into words, but its a good thing they didnt use her. what we got was garbage, but bringing talon in wouldve been worse

They're entirely different ships with entirely different uses and structures though. You're reaching.

These wouldve been Leia Poppins tier

Can't believe we got another TIE Fighters with red stripe, AT-ATs and Star Destroyers instead of this

No, it's still a deconstruction in the sense that he wants to "subvert" the audience's expectation of what a leading pair should look like in Star Wars.

it would have been cool if the First Order was stitching together a force and using experimental tech and salvaged parts

But that's the only one. The rest of the movie is just reconstructing what fans believe the prequels to have done wrong, just like TLJ is deconstructing everything fans thought TFA did wrong.

What does a TF starship that not blow up things with a superlaser weapon exactly act as an expy to the deathstar?

>reusing the same old shit with very minor tweaks is worse than reusing the same old shit without very minor tweaks
Kill yourself you strawmaning retard

>Kill yourself you strawmaning retard
you don't even understand what a straw man is while simultaneously doing it yourself lmao

Looks like it is made buy the ship yards that built the trade federation stuff

No, we won't.

>Prequels give us a bunch of new looks for ships/tech and whatnot
>Sequels were gearing up to do the same

This makes me really sad, instead we get a McDonalds supersized version of things we've already seen.

they do tho

Even under George he would have been doing something very similar. He might have survived it though but who can say now

>lmao

Lucas really liked Darth Talon's design so it's likely he had no intention of honoring any of EU stuff and instead was more interested in using her because he thought she looked cool.

Original script was supposed to have a full on Darth Vader impersonator and Vader's force ghost was supposed to be a mix of him and Anakin, dark and light seen hereThis movie could've been very good and likely better than what we have. Say what you will about Lucas and the prequels, they didn't have a 4 titted sea cow

George would have likely killed Luke in the first movie. I don't think he would have been willing to kill Han off.

Lucas liked lots of EU stuff. He fucking intentionally added the Outrider (Dash Rendar's starship) in ANH's Special Edition version. He personally retconned Vos' death in the Republic comic mini-series tie-in, Clone Wars, at the end of the story once Order #66 went down and used Aayla Secura's design and character in RotS because he saw how popular she was as an EU character.

The only issue is Lucas flip-flops on his views on EU. First he says its part of his universe, then he says it isn't, then puts stuff from it into his films, then acknowledges characters like Revan, etc...

It would actually be great to see the FO reusing old Clone Wars and GCW era technology, using what they can and improving on it enough to challenge the New Republics more standardized fleet.

WHY ISN'T THIS THE FINAL SEQUEL STORMTROOPER LOOK

IT'S JUST LIKE THE OLD REPUBLIC EMPIRE

THE ENDLESS POTTERY!
